Reducing Power Usage

Can a fan really reduce the power usage in your home? Absolutely. The money saved in electrical bills over the year quickly pays for the fan purchase and installation. Using ceiling fans throughout your home helps moderate the temperature within each room. Circulating the cool air that’s already been produced by the air conditioner means moderate temperatures for longer periods of time, which reduces the number of hours your air conditioner is running. Use of fans can make a room feel up to 6 degrees cooler than it actually is, which means the thermostat can be set higher. Start saving today with a ceiling fan installation.
